What if? if the temperature near the cliff suddenly falls to 0°c, reducing the speed of sound to 331 m/s, what would the initial speed of the rock have to be (in m/s) for the soccer player to hear the sound of the splash 2.90 s after kicking the rock?

The ph is the a.independent variable b.the dependent variable c.control group

Alarge cruise ship of mass 7.00 ✕ 107 kg has a speed of 11.6 m/s at some instant. (a) what is the ship's kinetic energy at this time? (b) how much work is required to stop it? (give the work done on the ship. include the sign of the value in your answer.) (c) what is the magnitude of the constant force required to stop it as it undergoes a displacement of 3.00 km?
